this is the original 1974 version,I got it from netflix,
first off,I enjoy campy 70's movies and this one is very cool,
in this movie I like seeing the hair & clothing & cars & the electronics,etc,etc, are great to see !
if you like 70's movies,this is a must see IMO
the 40 minute car chase is awesome,
the 2000 Nicolas Cage remake stays fairly close to this 1974 original,
"1974 PG 98 minutes
Maindrian Pace (H.B. Halicki, who also directed) and his cohorts race to steal 48 cars in a week, which will net them $250,000 if they succeed. But the group runs into trouble trying to jack a Mach 1 Mustang, and the cops chase Pace through seven counties. The basis for the 2000 film starring Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie, this 1974 original has become a cult classic thanks to the wild, 40-minute car chase that concludes the film."
